9-Clove Garlic Pesto Recipe

Garlic is amazing. There are actually many incredible health benefits to it. It has been used for centuries as an agent to boost the immune system. If you are capable of carefully swallowing an entire raw clove (at least 5), as you would a capsule, the benefits you’d acquire from doing so are immeasurable. Entire books have been written about its benefits and its many incomparable aiding properties.

At a very basic level, garlic:

is an anti-viral

is an anti-biotic

has anti-fungal properties

It even helps to lower blood pressure and is key in helping us to build energy. You should consider mixing and cooking ginger and garlic together in delicious foods or as a type of tonic. It’d do wonders for your health, energy and to stimulate better blood circulation. Remember, it is also an excellent blood thinner. In fact, in terms of food, it’s probably one of the very strongest of all. As you can see, garlic is incredible to consider for the fight against heart disease.

Did you know that antibiotics don’t actually kill viruses? In fact, what they do destroy like an atom bomb are bacteria. It destroys the flora and good bacteria in your stomach rendering your immune system non-existent for a few days, or even weeks, after you’ve finished your prescribed round.

On the other hand, garlic absolutely destroys viruses and it’s really not that difficult to come by. It’s in your best interest to obtain organic if you possibly can. The beneficial compounds of organic are about 7 times more potent than those of conventional.

The key element to keep in mind here is that this antiviral property we are talking about, a phytochemical called alliin, is really only present in raw garlic. The more garlic is cooked, the more it looses this very important element. That being said, you really don’t want to add raw garlic to a smoothie. The taste is just too intense and nothing you do will overshadow its very penetrating flavor.

The best way to enjoy raw garlic, is to make it in a delicious, healthy 9- clove pesto:
